An EDTA blood sample (0.5 – 1 ml) is best suited for purifying the DNA, as a large amount of cell material from the animal is available here.<\/p>\n

In principle, it is also possible to use two buccal swabs. For this purpose, a sterile cotton swab is rubbed vigorously on the inside of the cheek. The swab should then be dried to avoid mould and sent in a tube without medium (no liquids or agar).<\/p>\n

When using swabs, please ensure that the animal in question has not eaten for 1-2 hours and has not been in contact with other animals to avoid contamination that could affect the result of the test.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_accordion_tab][vc_accordion_tab title=”Can a genetic test also be carried out on a breed that is not listed for the test?”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1642065715064{padding-top: 20px !important;padding-right: 20px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;}”]In principle, the detection of a certain mutation can be carried out in all animals of a species.<\/p>\n

However, the significance of a test is weak as long as it is not scientifically described that there is a correlation between a genetic change and symptoms of a disease or to a trait.<\/p>\n

We therefore recommend a genetic test only for those breeds in which this correlation exists.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_accordion_tab][\/vc_accordion][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”vc_default” disable_element=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1612770855115{margin-top: -60px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_column_text][elfsight_faq id=”7″][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
